Testimonials

Thank you for helping our family start a vegetable garden, it is a great way to encourage the kids to spend time outdoors instead of watching TV or playing computer games. (The kids) love to fertilize the plants and watch them grow. We look forward to planting some eggplants as our entire family enjoys Eggplant with Garlic Sauce! - January 2023, 96817

We are a plant-based family so we EXTRA appreciate being able to harvest right from our own backyard. (My son) LOVES to plant and gather and I am so pleased that he is able to know where his food comes from while appreciating the work it takes to grow these things. 🙂 So far we've planted the green beans, and the bok choy is next on the list! - January 2023, 96744
